I have the 77mm and that is not normal. mine turns smoothly. no grinding.

thank you, ken.

I have an opportunity to pick up this Kowa (Bell and Howell) lens but one of the pictures shows some damage to the rear element. Just curious if any of the more experienced anamorphic shooters here could tell me if and how this might affect image quality. Thanks!

​this is on a GH4 w/ speedbooster and an old Nikon 35mm f/1.4 AIS lens set to f/2.8. i didn't use 4x3 mode because i didn't want to lose 24fps. so this is a 2.39:1 center crop from the 3.55:1 original.

Received a 2x demo unit yesterday. Did a quick comparison with a 35mm taking lens set to f/2.8. I'm really digging it so far.
